Under The Streetlamp To Play The Embassy May 5

Under the Streetlamp is coming to the historic Embassy Theatre for a live, one-night-only performance May 5, 2017. Featuring former leading cast members of hit Broadway musicals including “JERSEY BOYS,” Under the Streetlamp is a concert celebration of classic hits of the American Radio Songbook from the 1950s-1970s. Their shows feature tight harmonies and slick dance moves that take audiences back to an era of sharkskin suits, flashy cars and martini shakers. A flashback to a time when, on hot summer nights, people would gather under a streetlamp to sing their favorite rock and roll songs.

Tickets for Under the Streetlamp at the Embassy will go on sale Friday, Dec. 2 at 10 a.m. at Ticketmaster.com, the Embassy box office or by calling 800-745-3000.

Classic hits first performed by Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, Elvis Presley, Tom Jones, The Beatles, Roy Orbison, Bobby Darin and more are reborn for today’s audiences in this evening of great music and hilarious behind-the-scenes tales, complete with an exceptional seven-piece band composed of world-class musicians. With irresistible charm and rapport, Under the Streetlamp offers audiences the opportunity to get to know four critically acclaimed stars of stage and screen, Michael Ingersoll,Christopher Kale Jones, Brandon Wardell and Shonn Wiley. While each performer gets his moment in the spotlight, their synergy and charisma as a group has drawn an extremely devoted nationwide following.

Each performer carries with him an impressive list of credits. Between them, they have appeared on Broadway, in feature films and on television – including special appearances during the New Year’s Eve celebration in Times Square, on “The Tonight Show,” “The Primetime Emmy Awards,” “The Tony Awards” and “The Oprah Winfrey Show.”

“We think of ourselves as hosts to a party – and we’ve invited people of all ages,” says Ingersoll. “They can sing along. They can dance in the aisles. We of course show respect for these great songs and we want everyone to leave the party smiling.”

The show’s original performers met onstage as the lead characters in “Jersey Boys” and have since formed a concert sensation of their very own. After achieving initial success performing in and around Chicago, Under the Streetlamp aired its first PBS special in 2011, and a second in 2014. The four gifted singers are currently on tour in support of their 3rd PBS Special – Rockin’ Round The Clock, thrilling sold-out houses throughout the country.

Under the Streetlamp will play the historic Embassy Theatre, 125 W. Jefferson Blvd in Fort Wayne, for one performance only Friday, May 5 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $32.50/$39.50/$59.50 and are available for purchase beginning Friday, December 2 at 10:00 a.m. at the Embassy box office, Ticketmaster.com or by calling 800-745-3000.
